Checkbook Register Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 30, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how the Android app Checkbook Register (package com.sceapps.checkbookregister, the “App”), published by Sce Apps (“we”, “us”), handles information. We have kept it short and clear.

Summary

  • You do not create an account. The App never connects to your bank and never asks for bank logins, account numbers, card numbers or your Social Security number.
  • Your accounts, balances, entries and settings are stored only on your device. We cannot see them.
  • Backups and spreadsheets are shared only when you choose to, to the app or person you pick.
  • The App is free and shows ads through Google AdMob. It also uses Google Analytics for Firebase to understand, in aggregate, how the App is used.
  • Ads never appear while you are entering a transaction.
  • We do not sell your personal information.

1. Information stored on your device

The App saves the account names and starting balances you enter, your entries (date, amount, payee, check number, memo and whether the bank has cleared it), recurring bills, the dates you balanced with your statement and your preferences (text size, register order and language) in the App’s private storage on your phone. Balances are calculated on your device. This information is not sent to us and is deleted when you uninstall the App or clear its storage.

Backups and spreadsheets. When you back up or export, the App creates a backup file (JSON) or a spreadsheet (CSV) on your device and opens Android’s share sheet; the file goes only to the app or person you choose (for example Google Drive or email). When you restore, the App reads only the file you select. We never receive these files. Please keep your backup files private, because they contain your register.

The App does not send notifications. Recurring bills are added to your register when you open the App.

2. Analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase)

We use Google Analytics for Firebase, a service of Google LLC, to learn how the App is used so we can improve it. It collects:

  • App interactions, such as which screens are opened, when an entry is added, a statement is balanced or a backup is made, and which settings are chosen (for example text size);
  • Device and app information, such as the device model, operating system version, app version, language and an app instance identifier;
  • Approximate location (country or region) derived from your IP address.

Analytics never includes amounts, balances, payee names, check numbers, memos or account names. This information is not used to identify you personally, and we do not combine it with your name or contact details (the App does not collect them). Data is encrypted in transit. Learn more at firebase.google.com/support/privacy.

3. Advertising (Google AdMob)

To keep the App free, we show ads using Google AdMob, a service of Google LLC. To serve and measure ads and to prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect and share with Google:

  • Device identifiers, such as the Android advertising ID;
  • Approximate location derived from your IP address;
  • Interactions with ads (for example, ad views and clicks);
  • Diagnostic and performance information related to the ads SDK.

Data is encrypted in transit. Learn how Google uses this information at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

4. Your choices

  • Advertising ID: you can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in your phone’s settings (Settings > Google > Ads, or Settings > Privacy > Ads, depending on your device).
  • Consent: where required by law (for example in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, and in certain U.S. states), the App shows Google’s consent or privacy message before personalized ads are shown. You can change your choice at any time in the App under More > Your privacy choices when this option is shown.

5. U.S. state privacy rights (including California)

We do not sell personal information for money. Advertising through Google AdMob may be considered “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising under some U.S. state laws. You can opt out by turning off personalized ads as described above, through Google’s privacy message in the App where it is shown, or by contacting us. Because the App does not collect your name or contact details, information on your device can be deleted by uninstalling the App; for information held by Google, use the controls described in this policy.

6. Permissions

  • Internet: to load ads and send analytics.
  • Vibration: for gentle button feedback.

The App does not access your photos, contacts, microphone, camera or location, and it does not request notification permission. Files are opened only through Android’s file picker when you choose to restore a backup.

7. Financial information

The App is a personal record keeper. It is not connected to any bank, does not move money and is not financial advice. Always compare your records with your bank statements.

8. Children

The App is designed for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, please contact us and we will delete it.

9. Data retention and deletion

Your register stays on your device until you uninstall the App, clear its storage or use “Delete all entries” in the App. Analytics data is kept by Google according to the retention settings of our Firebase project (no longer than 14 months). For data held by Google AdMob, use the advertising ID controls described above. You can also email us to ask about your data.

10. Languages

The App is available in English and Spanish. This policy applies to both versions of the App.

11. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update the effective date above and publish the new version on this page.
